3,410 Citations1988Gordon D. Logan
A theory in which automatization is construed as the acquisition of a domainspeciSc knowledge base, formed of separate representations, instances, of each exposure to the task, providing an alternative to the modal view of automaticity and arguing that novice performance is limited by a lack of knowledge rather than a scarcity of resources.

NeuropsychologiaMental imagery in the motor context
1,114 Citations1995Marc Jeannerod
It is proposed that motor images are endowed with the same properties as those of the (corresponding) motor representations, and therefore have the same functional relationship to the imagined or represented movement and the same causal role in the generation of this movement.

As predicted, neutral subjects exhibited both perceptual effort and instructional equivalence, consistent with the assumption that they construct perceptual simulations spontaneously to verify properties, and indicates that conceptual tasks engender mixtures of simulation and word association, and that researchers must deter word association strategies when the goal is to assess conceptual knowledge.
